Mike Cavan, a former Georgia player and assistant coach – when he was credited with signing a recruit named Herschel Walker – who has also been the head coach at three other programs, has been named to a newly-created role: Special assistant to the head coach.

I've been saying Smart needs someone who has been in control of a program to help him anticipate things that a first time coach can't possibly anticipate. Cavan well fits that bill. That he has a long history with UGA, knows where a lot of bodies are buried, who buried them, and why is a big deal.
